The Ford Barn

My arthritic fingers enabled me to lose a SS torx head fuel stand bolt down the intake fuel stand hole in my 36 Ford 5W..
I have removed the entire intake assembly as well as the oil pan ( with the engine still in the car ).
I have inspected the entire crank assembly for a hidden pocket where this bolt might be hiding.
The 2 crankcase breather holes on either side of the fuel pump rod bushing are just the right size for the bolt to enter.
Question: is there a space somewhere at the back of the block that this mysterious bolt could be hiding?
Embarrassed and needing help.
Cheers
